Remember when USGBC granted each project two free CIRs? I would strongly encourage GBCI to allow for this at least for projects that register in the first year of 2012's use, or for the first x number of registered projects.

Mara, I agree with this concept. As we saw with the rollout of 2009, there were many grey areas that needed further refinement and definition. These showed up many months later in the form of addendum to the rating system. Allowing at least one free CIR in say, 2013, would go along way to appeasing the design teams working throught 2012 for the first time.
